Stephanies Really Good Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipes

THE BEST CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix the melted butter (it needs to be cooled to room temperature to prevent spreading), brown sugar, sugar, vanilla, and eggs. Whisk until smooth.
• Add the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, cornstarch, and salt. Use a rubber spatula to mix these until just combined.
• Add both chocolate chips and mix. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper. Let the dough sit while the oven is preheating before scooping.
• Use a large cookie scoop (3 Tablespoons). Scoop 6 cookie dough balls per cookie sheet. Top the cookie doughs with extra chocolate chips.
• Bake one cookie sheet at a time. Bake for 13-15 minutes until the edges are golden brown and the middle is slightly underdone. Top the cookies with extra chocolate chips and flaky sea salt *optional.
• Let the cookies sit on the hot pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.

SOFT AND CHEWY CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F with racks in the upper and lower third positions. In a small bowl, whisk together flour and baking soda; set aside. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter and both sugars on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add salt, vanilla, and eggs; mix to combine. Reduce speed to low and gradually add flour mixture, mixing until just combined. Mix in chocolate chips.
• Using a tablespoon measure, drop heaping portions of dough about 2 inches apart on baking sheets lined with parchment paper.
• Bake until cookies are golden around the edges, but still soft in the center, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from oven, and let cool on baking sheet 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer cookies to a wire rack and let cool completely. Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature up to 1 week.

STEPHANIE'S REALLY GOOD CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 375.
• 2. Mix flours with baking soda and salt in a bowl and set aside. Again, if you can't find bread or pastry flour you can use all-purpose flour.
• 3. In a large bowl, combine butter, sugars and pudding mix.
• 4. Beat until smooth and creamy.
• 5. Beat in eggs and vanilla; gradually add flour mixture.
• 6. Stir in chocolate chips.
• 7. Chill the dough for a half hour in the refrigerator.
• 8. Drop by teaspoon full on a non greased cookie sheet, flatten a little if desired.
• 9. Bake at 375 for 8-10 minutes. DO NOT OVERBAKE-bake until they look like they may not quite be done. They will cook further on the cookie sheet once you take them out.
• 10. Let sit on cookie sheet for 2 or 3 minutes, just long enough for them to be able to be transported to a wire cookie cooling sheet.
• 11. Parchment paper can also be used and placed on top of the cookie sheet if you find that your cookies keep coming out too crispy.

CHEWY CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Mix the butter and sugar together using an electric whisk or hand whisk until very light and fluffy, then beat in the egg and vanilla. Fold in the flour, baking powder, chocolate and ¼ tsp salt as quickly as you can. Don't overwork the dough as this will toughen the cookies.
• For the best flavour, leave the mixture overnight: either cover the bowl and chill, or roll the mixture into balls and chill.
• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and line two baking sheets with parchment. Divide the mixture into balls, the craggier the balls, the rougher the cookies will look. If you want to give the dough more texture, tear the balls in half and squidge them lightly back together. Space out evenly on the baking sheets, leaving enough space between each to allow for spreading.
• Bake the fresh cookies for 8-10 mins and the chilled ones for 10-12 mins, or until browned and a little crisp at the edges but still very soft in the middle - they will harden a little as they cool. Leave to cool on the tray for a few minutes before eating warm, or transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Will keep for three days in an airtight container.
